Hey everyone! If you want a chance to be featured in the next full-length video, make sure to leave a comment! The BEST and WORST rated comments will both be shown! So how will you strategize?…. A really nice comment….or….. a really controversial one?
Crank hp is like measuring your dick from for asshole.
Yes I'm a camaro fan Gen1&Gen2 I really like this camaro 13s wow love it a 396 corvette 4speed awesomely awesome running 13s also great race love your videos keep'em coming cause I don't have any friends 😂👊

Are you Brian from 'regular car review' or related to Him?
Wow. That was a real nail-biter. The Camaro did better than i thought with those highway gears.
I had a Ttop '78 Z28 in high school 1983-84 & the 1st thing I did was put true duals on it, mild cam, MSD ignition, 8.5mm spark plug wires & ripped off anything smog related & that really woke that 350 up ✌💖☮
Your humor reminds me of regular car reviews, but it’s not a copy, you’re original with your own style, I love how informative you are too
As a Vette owning, tire smoking, boomer (who embarrassingly danced to disco in the day) I found your comments……hilarious! The Z is running about like they did back then with a few strategic tweaks. Of course, in the end, there’s no substitute for cubic inches. Thanks for the great racing and hilarity. ~ Chuck 🌮🌮
🌮
I was a total disco rat, and in Los Angeles no less. While my stoner buds sat around being Beavises and Buttheads, and chanting "Death to Disco", I was where the hot horny chicks were: The Disco. NOW Charles, I'll bet that at your age, you are still more coordinated and balanced than most people half or a third of your age. I certainly am, much the surprise of many, and I credit it to years and years on the dance floor. Get your groove on. Don't be embarrassed.
78 Camaro pulling high 13s. 😳
Oh and I laughed out loud. Several times. Thanks C&Z .
I own a 79 z28 and I will admit I was shocked with how quick that z was for what they were, great video Mr.Zebra
Wow! I have no idea how in the heck I missed this one! That smogged '78 Camaro sure held its own against the "all mighty" Vette! and thanks for using my comment in your new BEST and WORST comment section, I'm truly honored 🦓 I raise a Taco in your name! 🌮💯
I'll take that loss, cool video!!
Thanks!
For a second, I thought it'd be a 1967 Corvette L88 drag racing that '78 Camaro.
The '67 L88 Corvette is the coolest C2 Corvette ever in my opinion. And I'm certainly not alone. That monster made 560 HP, compared to its severe 430 HP rating. And they're so expensive even C&Z's girlfriend's father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate can't buy that thing.
(I hope you like that Spaceballs reference, everyone)
I was thinking '67 L88 as well, but I don't think they came with a warranty... or at least not 12 months. Either way, the only true "holy grail" Corvette from the classic era would be the 1970 LS7. Supposedly there was ONE built (tested by motor trend if I remember right) and it was later modified, then destroyed.
The Spaceballs reference was great though... and no, sir, I didn't see you playing with your dolls again.
(in Dark Helmet's voice)
Well, only grown up assholes play with dolls besides little kids.
In all seriousness, the 1970 LS7 Corvette sure looks like one hell of a treat!
Those disco cruisers could be modified to be faster obviously if you knew what to do. As always, to all the owners, You guys are awesome for bringing these gems to the track.
Farts and Zebras. What's not to love! 😤
I’m not a Chevy guy but I gotta admit this race was zesty. And you were right I wasn’t ready for how much ass that camaro hauled. I don’t say this often but good on you Chevrolet.
"Zesty" yeah, that's a nice way to put it! I've been following the Zebra 🦓 dude for quite a while, there's a lot of match ups which seemingly don't make sense but I always root for the underdog
The Zebra is back! Thanks for the laughs. Keep up the good work.😆
Yo that Camaro ran so fine it deserves high respects 😎
With a few modifications you can really wake these Chevy 350 smog motors up! I'm very impressed just how quick that Camaro was running.
dude you got me laughing,,,needed that!
This is hands-down, my favorite drag racing clip channel!!!! you’re not a real car guy if you don’t love this channel!!!! if you’re ever in Las Vegas look me up!!!
The Camaro put on an impressive showing. Not expected to be that close. 😵
I'm late to the party but love you and your twisted videos!!! A bug is trying to fly up my nose, much like the 80's!!! Lol
Great cars, from a Ford guy. Thanks for all the laughs!
I loved them Z28s growing up. Good on the 16 yo and his dad
Glad to see the humor back
I expected the Vette to win but didn't expect the Z28 to keep it that close.
That Vette sounds even better when It's being power shifted like that!
Well I was a bit shocked with how fast that de smogged Z28 ran . I imagine if the Corvette was given the same treatment it would be in the 12s. All said given that the Z was was driven by a 16 yr. Old is impressive. Way to go dad!
Camaro sure did give that Corvette a challenge
I owned a 78 Z28, yeah, complete with the Joe Dirt hair cut!! This was an awesome match up, but hey, big blocks ARE ALL THAT & catch posers on the "big end"... I was a stop light hero, dusting off the most angry wheel spinners!
My mods:
no cat 🙀
Ram air functional hood scoop
True dual exhaust with L82 mufflers
Tweaked quadrabog
... It also had the 4-speed & 3.73 gears.. maroon & yes, Z28 stripes!
It sounded slightly better than phhhhht!!!!! 😂😂😂
Nice! 😎
@@CarsAndZebras & I got a 4th gear scratch!! 😁
Dude!! So glad you're back!!! The knowledge you give of each car prior to the race is fantastic!
I love all the small detail info!
Thanks CZ and thank you drivers!!
I'm not a serious Corvette fan (love the GTO) but my favorite is the '63 split-window in the rear.
I did NOT expect that little Corvette to weigh over 3600 pounds. I used to have 2 second generation Camaros so I know how portly they are.
Those iron headed big blocks in the Corvettes were heavy! They are worth more but I'd rather have a 365 horse 327 as a driver.
The smallblock shed at least 250 lbs, the weight of one Xtra large girlfriend! 🤣🤣🤣
@@gearmeister That’s not enough to shed my ex
@@CarsAndZebras 🦓🦓🦓... LOL 😂 😂 😂
Those High Winding 327,s with a 4-speed and gear were tuff for sure.
Thanx for the show 👍👍
Awesome!
Not sure which was more shocking, how well the disco Camaro ran our hearing Toto....
If you want proper car-geekiness, while lying on the ground, grasping for air from laughing too hard, you've come to the right place! A '65 Corvette L78 with sidepipes is automotive perfection! (the Camaro is ok too...)
Had a 78 Z28 4 speed 3.73 gears. The Catalytic Convertor was gone and true dual exhaust to the Resonators thru the tsil pipes. Black with gold stripes. A K&N air filter, de-smogged and the timing pulled up and a little jetting on the Qjet with 92 Premium ran a 9.30 1/8th mile.
We love you too. And plz keep the corn...its what makes me watch you instead of any of the others. ML&R Brotherman
Love love love the toilet humor back. Those video only posts were for the birds.
Awesome , Thanks C&Z 😊
Without the humor…is it really cars and zebras? You are doing the lords work sir.
Yes I'm a camaro fan gen1&gen2 i really like this one 13s wow and a 396 corvette 4speed running 13s also great race love your video keep'em coming cause i don't have any friends 😂👊
Finally a new video.
“She sucked me dry, and not in a good way” I feel that lmao last $20 magically disappeared when we broke up
Wait. Who won? Sorry I got distracted by the link to the Brandi Love video...
😎
Do you need a tissue?
Who is Brandi Love?
Excellent video! Top quality content.
Spank!!!!
Another great video!
Thanks for the best commentary in the business!
I voted for the corvette. But love the Camaros just as much.
Frank is a sad man.
Broughham is back! Kick Azz!
Damn is it that obvious I don't have friends?!?! Lmao
Ohhhh toilet humor and racing in drag...politicians are gonna love you!
Man, this reminds me of my dads yellow 79 camaro with a 396 and a 4 speed, steelies and all, i always loved this generation, it just looks so nice
396? Not original engine obviously.
@@carlosoliveira-rc2xt yeah, it came with it when he bought it
your voice overs are key. they make the whole channel.
That Camaro never ran like that when it was new! I wish I knew what they did to get that kind of power from an engine with the terrible heads they had.
HEY! I have 3 friends damnit! And that is enough for me!
That’s infinitely more than the average viewer
Friends are overrated... all they do is borrow money without paying it back and judge you for watching too much por... never mind.
Good day C & Z,
Never late in a L78, 1978 Z28 not good enough for the L78.
Man there are a lot of 8’s floating around & you know 8 is a lucky number.
The way that driver was power shifting that L78 man I was waiting for tail shaft to do the figure 8 & wriggle it’s arse from the arse end.
Great to hear you at your best, that girlfriend of your get a lot of crap thrown at her, she must be your soul 8.
Cheers
Your number 1 Fan from Australia.
Maybe your 1 st fan from the very beginning 🇦🇺 🇦🇺 🇦🇺
Louis Kats from Melbourne, Australia 👍 😊 💪 🇦🇺 🇺🇸
Great video 👍 both great cars. I'd ditch the crappy exhaust in the Camaro too. 2 1/2 inch pipe with 44 series flowmaster mufflers would be music.
thanks C&Z! I poop in your honor!
I couldn’t ask for anything more
I think the Vette was holding back (again, I just think he was...could be totally wrong)... Great vid, always love the info given 👍
Nice cars. Fun video. Keep it up.
I'd be really happy with a 78 Camaro that ran high 13s low 14s with an AT and 342s. That being said, you can see how much of a handful that Vette was! 1 mistake is all it takes...something my dad said when he street raced in the early 60s.
No stock 78 Camaro is running 13s.
I honestly thought the Vette would take it. That was surprising
I love all the farting. You got yourself a new subscriber.
Another awesome video C&Z! Any 1973 Z-28's in any upcoming videos? That's what I have in the garage... Bobby
Thumbs up zeb, fun vid
corvette weight = just a bit more than an early forester ! - but with 425 bhp ha = even that turbo subaru - 177hp.
You f___n legend. G'day from down under
Awesome video! Bet the Camaro would drop ET to 13.7s if he put the 3:73 gears from the 4spd cars in the rear...
your the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Boomer says the toilet humor is why he left. I'm pretty sure it's why most of us stay. Oh, and Cars & Zebras spitting all the juicy, juicy car facts. Keep up the great work.
L78 was rated 425 hp in the Corvette. It was rated 375 hp in the Camaro, chevelles, novas and El Camino.
My 1979 Z-28 ran 13:56 @ 107 MPH with no traction .. not quite stock but much room for faster times with better traction .
I expected more out off the Corvette and surprised with the Camaro performance.
Finally
Something doesn't add up . A 396 with 425 HP with an outrageous 4:56 rear is a low 12 second car . Driver must of spun at the starting lane for almost a sec "
The Z28 has obviously been worked on a touch. Automotive magazine tests from 1978 put it at 16.3 in the quarter.
Hilarious 😂
The vette ran as expected. The Camaro, evidently, was highly modified.
Love your work.. don't change a thing.. please add more... Yeah I'm one of your guys. Best channel ever... Did you really restore a 69 Chevelle.. frost green.. ?
That vette is oh so delicious but the pot smoker camaro takes me back to my youth. I was a ford guy (minus the unforgivable abominable called the mustang 2🤢🤮) but 2nd gens made me happy in my pants.
Who needs Academy Award movies when you have C&Z Productions?
Those pipes also rob power
Finallyyyyyyyyyyyy
damn, I almost clicked on another website
I'd still rather have a 67 with a L89. That said I'm more of an a body or x body fan.
Imagine if the Camaro had 410 gear's 👍
The TOILET HUMOR MAN is Back ?? Never Noticed You Left !! LoL ✌️🤪👍 Where'd You Go ? I Was Surprised as Shitzisel at How fast the Z28 was and Slow the Vette was !
The Camaro has better tires.. My 1979 Z-28 Camaro was $7,190.00 on the road .. very few options 3:73 gears BW T-10 4 speed .. the Cast alumnum mags were a $273.00 option .. rear window defogger .. rain gutters.. Radio delete .. Posi traction was $70.00 I think 4% sales tax included.
💪💪
The corvette 4.56 gears i think hurt it. 4.10's might have been better. The camaro was fast for what it was. This was a top of the line big block vette vs. a run of the mill smallblock smogger camaro and it barely beat it
I've built up a 79 camaro from just an empty shell with a 1971 350 4 bolt main motor with about 18k miles on it from an RV, sounds like it has an RV cam in it (wonder why) and a th350 with a shift kit and converter, motor has a edelbrock intake and a holley 650dp on it with an msd ignition, long tube headers and header mufflers, same 3.40-ish rear end with limited slip, wonder what kinda power and time its running, havent driven it yet, been doing wiring and interior
I want 2 see this 2 cars on 1 mile race top speed each 1 of them
I missed these farts so much. Hell yes.❤
How can you get such a small amount of bhp out of such a large amount of ci?
10:42
That Camaro had more done to it than meets the eye. What were they, 8-1 compression and 185hp?
Do you know what that Toto song is about? Look it up, it will never sound the same again.
The Camaro was impressive, but the Vette was likely all stock.
11:28
Camaro? How?
The upgrades and changes are in the rules
